A web is strong, held by spider nano-thread. Webs are weaved for safety To wrap around something precious. Webs are weaved for comfort To warm and hold the lost. Webs are weaved to make a home The spider providing for its young. Webs are weaved for food The fisherman, a trap for spiders’...

Sinking lower and lower; The burn won't help you out. It can only disguise the pain 'Til you don't recognize it yourself. All of us have problems: Drugs, promiscuity Alcohol, daddy issues. Each and every one. All skeletons in the closet We are so afraid to air. What...

Quickening heartbeat
Blood rushing to my cheeks
When held by you,
Snug in your arms
Filled with contentment, pleasure
Coursing through my veins
When the warmth of our bodies
Touches
Looking into your eyes
I get lost
And could stay
Forever
Like a drug, made
Personally for me
Impo...

Take a trip with me
Into the future
Where you sit
With your husband and kids
Think of this image
Whenever you’re down
And always remember
Things will come back around
Suffer through heartbreak
Be positive through grief
For soon you’ll be this happy person
With a ring on her hand

A flower growing high
Bursting forth from its shell
Leaving the comfort of the earth
To feel the sun’s warmth
Beware, for there are dangers
Of wind and fire
Ice and snow
That care for no little flower
Beautiful and free
Yet with firm roots in the ground
Cheerleading to the world
Loo...

A month ago I thought I was dying
I felt so lost and alone
My days were filled with mostly crying
And my sounds were often moans
I’ve grown so much stronger now
My eyes can finally see
I haven’t gotten over it somehow
But there’s a new path for me
All the hurt is still within me
T...

Pain is born of fear
Fear that things will change
Or that maybe, even
That they won’t
Tears are born of many things
Both happy and sad
Don’t be afraid to cry
For it isn’t always bad
Close your eyes and remember
Just for a short moment
Remember until the bad things consume
Then t...

Face down, smelling the sweet grass
Letting tears leak from those soulful eyes
Running on the ground, creating rivulets
That send ants cowering for cover
A curtain of hair falls in front of her face
As she gets up to face the sun
Hiding the red blush across her cheeks
From the shame of bei...

It was a beautiful summer day. It was quite warm. There was Isabel’s bonfire later and not a cloud to be seen in the sky. Who would have thought that it would go so terribly wrong? I certainly did not. I did not expect this one day to ruin my entire summer.
I opened my phone, unaware of what is...
